when mitt romney talked about self deportation of illegal immigrants, the message he was saying to the immigrant community was we're going to make life of so difficult for those who are in this country illegally that they will voluntarily go back to the country that they were fleeing. and what jeb bush in his book referred to this as, he talked about this as a gateway issue. in other words, you can't even get latinos in the door to listen to the message you have about the economy, about health care, about education. because they're so turned off by the rhetoric about illegal immigration. and that i think is what ari and the republican party is talking about now. >> so john berman has covered politics for a gazillion years. richard, you are my nonpolitico. are you moved? is there a sense of a relaunch? >> i'm the type of person that i'm to be persuaded, right some but to me, i know especially this 18 to 29 group, i just feel like it seems like marketing. and i hear the word brand and to me that makes it seem that it's not authentic. so i think social issues, but this idea of the package
